Apr 1, 2025For fans of visual novels, they just don’t come better than this, so Stories from Sol: the Gun-Dog gets top marks from me.

Feb 20, 2025Richly detailed and only occasionally derivative, Stories from Sol: The Gun-Dog is well worth the few hours of your time it will take for a playthrough and a half. Fans of classic sci-fi anime will get a kick out of its presentation, but more than that, this game will appeal to anyone who enjoys a tense ‘bottle episode’ mystery. The Gun-Dog succeeds less as a branching-narrative adventure game and more as a small-scale proof of concept for the greater Stories from Sol narrative series that I truly hope comes to fruition.

Mar 5, 2025A well-written sci-fi visual novel reminiscent of the genre’s pioneers, with compelling descriptions and an immersive story supported by its characters. Though there are some investigative elements and branching decisions, limited interactivity and an unresolved ending may frustrate some players.
